========================================================================= I don't know if this was posted to comp.sys.amiga.games, but just in case I am reposting an answer for help with FUTURE WARS. The mail deamons could not deliver due to addressing errors. ========================================================================== Warning: Spoilers follow......... In article <56.27179bc2@vger.nsu.edu> you write: >Is anybody out there *successfully* playing Future Wars? If so, I sure >would appreciate some help. > >I am stuck in the monastery.

I'm learning VI so be kind! The main thing is to move clockwise, not stepping of the path. Upon entering the Monastery move clockwise to the right hand door, enter and speak to the alian in the room; he will ask for a drink. Exit the room and move clockwise to the left hand room. You will find a golden chalis. Take the cup and exit room. Move clockwise to the top door. Enter the wine vault anduse the chalis on a wine barrel. The cup will fill. Exit and move clockwise to the right hand door again, enter and give cup to the alian. He will drop, dead drunk. Now explore room and take all you find, especially the control. Exit room, move clockwise back to top room. Enter and use control on top middle barrel. A door will open. Enter the barrel. Thats it! Another hint. Sometimes you have to try twice to get something to work. BTW: I'm stuck further on in the game. I've entered a ship affter blasting 20-30 alians. I can't get any further. Any hints? I can enter and exit the ship via a ramp, but thats it. /Clint Helton/

Then the ship will take off and will fly to the alien mothership, where more frustration awaits.
